Today I turn 44 years old. You may be tired of hearing about my birthday. That’s life. I’ve got quite the day planned.

9:00 a.m. PT session

10: 00 a.m. Pedicure and eyebrow wax because of these. OMG that is sick:

11:15 a.m. Trip to Whole Food to buy my lemon dream cake and to have coffee with a friend

1:00 p.m. Free car wash (because it’s my birthday)

3:00 p.m. Take daughter to piano

5:00 p.m. Dinner with family and mom and dad. Mom’s making me a surprise birthday meal. Any guesses what it might be? She knows I love chicken/dumplings, homemade pizza and lamb with couscous. We’ll see what emerges out of her magical kitchen. Probably none of the usual favorites.

Notice there is no work on the agenda. Or anything not fun. Well, PT is debatable, but it’s getting me towards a goal, so that makes it okay.

This has been an amazing year, despite some setbacks. Here are 44 highlights (in no particular order):

Happy Birthday to you and your wonky hip. I hope your birthday dinner is something thoroughly unhealthy, as it is meant to be, accompanied by copious amounts of wine. Feel free to skip the food and go straight to the wine. Year 43 looks like it was a hell of a year. Looking forward to seeing what 44 brings.

Happy happy happy birthday!!! It sounds perfect :) I hope you eat lots of cake and delish mom food. Moms make the BEST food, always. Also? I'm seriously totally jealous that you went to a Taylor Swift (T-swizzle, as I love to call her) concert!

Happy Birthday! I hope you have an awesome day. Your list was great. What a fun idea and you sure did have an eventful year. :)I am going to guess homemade pizza for dinner because that is what I would want. Enjoy your celebrating!

Happy Birthday Beth!This morning I was having a coughing fit and thought I pooped a little - thought of you and looked at my watch - the date said it is your birthday. I knew that cough was good for something.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! wow, thats quite a list. too bad your gyno doesnt have a speculum warmer, you should call them up and tell them its your birthday and to buy you one for your next visit. chicken and dumplings sounds soooo good right now, i hope thats what she makes for you.

Happy Birthday! I vote the lamb dish, just because I married into a Greek family and I wish my hubby's Yia Yia liked me enough to make it for me (she pretends she does, but I know her secret. lol). :) If it's lamb, tell us about each delish bite. :)

I love your year in review. I think we should all do that for ourselves every year. What a great way to keep it all in perspective. Happy Birthday, Beth! I know you'll blow out all of those candles, and I hope your birthday wish comes true.

Happy birthday! bonne fete!!!!I say she will make..lasagna and a cake!Dean who?I hope someone got you new underwears seriously..Speaking of that guy in the picture with you where who have your arms up..yeah that one..I will get to run with him Saturday..well not really WITH him like you did but near him..going to the Run with Dean 5k..thanks for posting the info yesterday..!have a good one dear!here's to many more pain free miles on the pavement for you and no more running in the water!CHEERS!

Happy Bday Beth! You had a great year, even with the broken hip. I think this is the "elite injury", all the cool people get it:) I am very impressed with how you handled everything, sharing it with us, but keeping your sense of humor even when things were really tough! Glad you are now running and I see great things in your future! Keep SUARing!

I also think your surprise meal is fill with love and thanksgiving. If you have that, it doesn't matter what you actually eat : ) Of course, I'd rather have love with sushi, or salmon grilled on cedar planks with a raspberry lime sauce . . . or . .

Your list was priceless....and if you must know, i have a shy colon. yeah, i can't poop outside. it's really a shame whenever I go camping. It's like the trees are watching me and it creeps me out. Good think i generally don't camp for more than 2 days at a time...otherwise I might have serious issues. Also glad to know countless other people are going to read this and know my name....
